Hi,
i've just completed an installation of 17 systems of Fujitsu V-II series.
They range over most outdoor models available and are combination of single, double and triple outdoor unit sytems.
All are operating normally. however.....When operating on gen set and the mains power comes back on. Some will not reset and go into error locking out.
This is random and not always the same systems . There could be 1 or 4 locking out with the others fine.
I have managed to get the gen set/electrical contractor to increase the time interval for the changeover to 15 seconds.
This seems to be the time taken to loose all power on the control board. This seems to cure most of the problem most of the time.
But we still have the odd trip. Fujitsu say they have not experienced this problem in any other pacific island countries where these operate. So am wondering what could be causing this and if it is voltage related could I install iron ring toriod for example on the 240v feed onto the control board. The voltages go through filter boards and all sorts of cleaning devices so really would appreciate some feedback if anyone has experienced this.
I do not want to go to the costly expense of installing contactors and timers etc to give it a longer time out.If you turned the isolator off and then back on after a few seconds you also get this trip.I cannot figure why it can happen on one changeover and not the next on any given system.
